One thing I do think we need to do is stop messing around getting bids rejected for center backs and offer what the club is asking.
I don't want us being held to ransom but a center back fore is needed just as much as the striker. We've now had two bids rejected for Botman and I've just read we've had our second bid rejected for Diego Carlos. Supposedly offered £25 mil for Carlos but his buyout clause is £80 mil. I'm not saying pay £80 but don't insult a team and offer £25.
Both them defenders are huge prospects and will evidently be sold at some point for big big money so I think for at least one of them we should just meet the asking price and get them over the line.
Good points.

I would say offer Lille 50mil or whatever they want. Hes worth it and will have no problem with adapting.

If we stay up, and once hes get PL-experice you could sell for 100mil, in a year or two.
